Always impressed with the imaginations of great artists and their various interpretations of paintings– like the Last Supper. Dali had an interesting version too.

Yes I know, interesting but, to me nowhere near the El Greco.
Always impressed too! 😉
Wishes for a beautiful day, Art.
Beautiful tribute to an exceptionally gifted painter Marina. I consider it a blessing to have been able to see some of his works in Toledo and in the Prado.
Oh, a blessing indeed!!!!!
I’m so glad you enjoyed this short tribute to a master painter. xoxoxo
I love El Greco. I saw a lot of his paintings in Spain.
Me too… fortunately, I’ve seen many too!
Love the Vangelis! 🙋♂️
I think he’s done much better soundtracks… 😉
